Samantha is back with another super cute and creative card to inspire you! These adorable leaves are going through some Autumn changes that are pretty awesome! Remember this is the second week of three for the Awesome Autumn challenge.


Sam used our Stitched Leaves dies for this adorable line up! She inked the leaves with Distress Oxide ink in rainbow hues then she added smiles from I Scream, You Scream, backing the leaves with Black Licorice cardstock. She also cut out arms and legs from Mr. Sun to finish the happy little leaf people!


She used Henry’s ABCs to create the greeting! Try to not hum the song in your head!


And then she created the background on a large slimline panel, stenciling Birch Trees with Distress Ink in Lost Shadow and Iced Spruce before assembling this whimsical design!

Thank you so much for sharing this absolutely charming inspiration with us, Samantha!

Samantha has some “fangtastic” Awesome Autumn inspiration for us today! Her beautiful inky design features Fangtastic Friends and You Autumn Know.


She stamped and colored the images from You Autumn Know and Fangtastic Friends with Zig
Clean Color Real Brush Markers. And then once they were dry, she added details with a white gel pen
and cut them out with the coordinating Lawn Cuts dies.


She created the background with the Birch Tree Stencils, inking with Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold and Squeezed Lemonade for the sky. She splattered a little bit of water on top for a bit of texture! Then she used Lost Shadow for the trees, adding some white gel pen details. Then she heat-embossed the sentiment in white onto black cardstock and popped it up with foam tape! She also popped up all of the bats with foam tape!

Thank you so much for this truly Awesome Autumn inspiration, Samantha!

Franci created a pair of Stitched Circle Tags with cats who are up to mischief in the woods!


Franci hints at this scene being deep in the woods using Birch Tree Stencils and an eerie color of purple. She used Spooky Fence to further set the scene. Then she added the Purrfectly Wicked cats and spell-making accessories.


Thank you for this fun inspiration, Franci!
